15And if because of food your brother is troubled, then you are no longer going on in the way of love. Do not let your food be destruction to him for whom Christ went into death.
16Let it not be possible for men to say evil about your good:
17For the kingdom of God is not food and drink, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
18And he who in these things is Christ's servant, is pleasing to God and has the approval of men.
19So then, let us go after the things which make peace, and the things by which we may be a help to one another.
20Do not let the work of God come to nothing on account of food. All things are certainly clean; but it is evil for that man who by taking food makes it hard for another.
21It is better not to take meat or wine or to do anything which might be a cause of trouble to your brother.
